The Transatlantic Icarus, Catherine Grigoious
Icarus is a young person with an immense challenge to meet: either to stay under his fatherâs protection on the island of Crete where King Minos rules the land and the waves, and where he will be a privileged but controlled subject, at least until his father continues being such a major problem-solver for the king. Or, he will make his big attempt to escape, by air. Where to? Back to Athens, or anywhere he manages to get on his improvised means, the wings he and his father carefully constructed out of bird feathers and wax.
